The 32nd edition of the festival with the subtitle Reconciliation will take place from 13 to 27 April

EASTER FESTIVAL OF SACRED MUSIC

Sun 13 April – Sun 27 April 2025

Reconciliation

The Easter Festival of Sacred Music accompanies its listeners during Holy and Holy Week. Once again, it includes repertoire from medieval chant to contemporary, once again touring the churches of Brno, but not only. For the first time in Brno, Arvo Pärt’s famous Johannes Passion, Oscar Peterson’s jazzy Easter Suite, Marc’Antoine Ziani’s Baroque oratorio and Diego Ortiz’s Renaissance Vespers will be performed.

Exceptionally, the festival’s dark hours leave the traditional premises of the Jesuits’ church and explore the spaces of Brno’s unique water tanks through various forms of medieval chant. The festival and the people around it are already looking forward to listeners who will set out to discover different forms of sacred music and its messages.
